"but I'll try to answer any questions you have here."

ok so here is a question.

How do you plan to let people online actually program a robotic car? (More likely) Do you plan to have some kind of simulated environment? Make hardware accessible through the web? actually run student programs on hardware (and send results back to students)? Make datasets from actual car sensors available?

I am just wondering about the scope of the course here. More information would be great.

Tangential: Does anyone actually write Robotics code in Python? All real life examples I've seen (that actually drive robots vs teach an algorithm) uses C/C++.

The robotic car class is a separate class, so I'm not able to answer all the questions about that one. (I am pretty sure, though, we won't be able to actually send people physical robotic cars! There will be a simulated environment, but it will use real data.)

Oops. Sorry about that. My mistake :). Hopefully someone from the "robotic car" class will pop in.
